Mission walkthrough
-
Arrive equipped for the helicopter
Take armour and suitable ranged ammunition before visiting the heist location. This is more than a quick pickup: the objective includes both armed guards and an aircraft. Avoid entering the centre of the group before identifying the nearest cover.
-
Remove the helicopter threat
Engage the marked helicopter from a clear position, using the weaponry you have prepared. Keep away from nearby walls when firing explosives. Do not let the aircraft keep attacking while you concentrate only on enemies at ground level.
-
Clear the guards and collect the case
Defeat the required gang members, then pick up the briefcase. Check for any remaining objective markers before leaving. A case pickup does not excuse unfinished combat requirements if the game still lists enemies to eliminate.
-
Deliver the briefcase
Follow the new marker to the Liberty Tree offices. Use a healthy vehicle and leave the combat area once the delivery objective becomes active. Stop at the handover point to finish the mission.
Key point
Read the remaining objective after each phase. The helicopter, guards and briefcase are separate parts of the same assignment.
